Traditional closeboard remains the preferred boundary choice throughout Wallington's residential streets. Built to withstand decades of British weather, these robust panels complement properties from Roundshaw's newer developments to Manor Road's period homes.

Wallington's mix of compact Victorian plots and spacious suburban gardens presents unique fencing challenges. Closeboard construction adapts brilliantly to uneven terrain common near Beddington Park, whilst maintaining the privacy residents value. The overlapping featherboard design handles the area's clay soil movement better than rigid panel alternatives, preventing gaps developing over time.
Each vertical board overlaps its neighbour by 25mm, secured to horizontal rails using galvanised nails. Gravel boards protect the base from moisture damage - particularly important given Wallington's tendency for waterlogged gardens after heavy rain. Posts are concreted 600mm deep, accounting for local soil conditions that shift between sandy deposits near the Wandle and heavy London clay elsewhere.
Having installed hundreds of metres across SM6 properties, we understand the specific requirements of Wallington gardens. Local planning considerations around conservation areas near Carshalton Ponds inform our approach, ensuring compliance without compromising on quality.

Standard installations range from £85-120 per linear metre, though steeper gardens towards Purley often require additional groundwork. Properties backing onto Mellows Park may need taller panels, affecting overall costs.
Absolutely - from Hackbridge station through to Wallington's borders with Coulsdon, we cover all SM6 addresses including estates off Woodcote Road and properties near Bandon Hill Cemetery.
Most residential boundaries take 2-4 days, weather permitting. Longer runs or complicated access through narrow Victorian side returns may extend this slightly.
Every installation carries decade-long protection against structural failure. Pressure-treated timber components resist rot whilst our construction methods ensure panels remain secure through seasonal ground movement.
Stepped installation works perfectly on Wallington's hillier sections. Rather than following ground contours, panels maintain horizontal lines whilst posts adjust to accommodate slopes up to 30 degrees.
